The links of the Harvard Golf Club are located in Watertown and may be reached by a Watertown car. The best way to reach the grounds is to leave the car at Common street, turning to the right to Marian Road, to the town land. The links are across this land to the right.
Though the course, at present, is but six holes in length, the club hopes soon to increase it to nine. The first hole is 300 yards long over rolling ground, with a bunker 133 yards from the tee. The second hole is 186 yards long, and the third, which is up a steep grade, is but one yard shorter. The fourth is on the top of a hill with a stone bunker 130 yards from the tee. The length of this hole is 258 yards. The fifth and sixth holes are respectively 213 and 152 yards long.
If the number of members of the club is sufficiently large to warrant the executive committee in so doing, a locker building will be put up and a professional instructor engaged. It is also the intention of the committee to hold tournaments on the links this fall. Everything will be done to make the links as perfect as possible.
Any member of the University wishing to join the club, may do so by sending the annual dues ($5.00) to Stoughton Bell, Treasurer, 164 Brattle street. Subscriptions will also be received at the Crimson Office.
